At Cuesta College, we take your privacy and the confidentiality of your personal information very seriously. Unfortunately, due to the public nature of the Internet, it is impossible for us to guarantee complete privacy during your online counseling sessions. Please use discretion and common sense when providing personal information online. 

To fully benefit from an online counseling appointment, I agree to:

1. have a counselor access and discuss my academic records
2. interact with the counselor in a productive, positive, and professional manner
3. provide information that is current and truthful about myself, my academic records, and my educational goals
4. conduct the conversation in a private setting (without others viewing or listening) with good lighting and no distracting noises
5. not record the session without permission of the counselor
